Mary Frances and I went thru school together in Greensboro anhd lived around the block from each other in Starmount. The last time we were together was for my 70th Birthday . She was a good friend and wish we had seen more of each other over the years. My love and prayers to Karl and her children . I live. In Reidsville and married Pat Foy Brady . We often talked about the Foy connection but never could quite figure it out. She was a big part of my life in Greensboro and I will miss her but have the memories. Kind thoughts, Lillian Holland Brady
